Asked by JMAN73 Nov 30, 2011 at 12:29 AM about the 2004 Nissan Xterra

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I just purchased a new battery as the fittings on the old one were corroded. I could not get it to turn over, but lights and everything else was functioning. When I dropped in the new battery, still would not turnover. anyway of testing to see if alternator is gone as well. Is there a reset button that I'm not aware of?

There is no reset button. However if you bring it in to your local Midas or really any car service place, they can check your alternator.
